White House officials told ABC News that the draft appears to be among the hundreds of executive orders that are circulating –- drafted by either the Trump transition team, the White House policy team or even by outside groups –- and that not all reflect administration thinking or likely policy. One official did not say who drafted this potential order, but did not dispute its authenticity.

“We do not have plans to sign anything at this time but will let you know when we have any updates,” said Sarah Huckabee Sanders, a White House spokesperson.

Trump is speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast at this hour (watch LIVE HERE). The executive order was rumored to coincide with his appearance at the breakfast and some suggested he would sign it afterward.
